After CM1 Beyond Overlord what will be the name for CM2?

- Beyond Zitadelle?

- Barbarossa?

- Operation Typhoon?

poll here please!<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Here's the official short list of title possibilities:

Combat Mission: Russian SmackDown.

Combat Mission: Germany Invades Russia, Does Good, Russia Counterattacks, Germany Defends But Ultimatly Loses(or, CMGIRDGRCGDBUTL for short).

Combat Mission: A Bridge To Tsar.

Combat Mission: Russian Purge Pack.

Combat Mission: Insert Working Title Here.

Combat Mission: Beyond Stalingrad.

Combat Mission: Russian Human Wave Attack.

Combat Mission: Jeep Rushing & Edge Hugging On The East Front.

Not sure which of these will finally be chosen, but they're all winners in my book.

CM II- The unled hordes against the handful.

- Attack now, comrade, or be purged.

-With enough untrained soldiers, tactics aren't really important

But if somehow my skiff goes down, I'll freeze to death before I drown.

And pray my body will be found, Alaska salmon fishing, boys, Alaska salmon fishing.

There are no hamsters on the Russian front. Instead, there are voles, a rodent similar to lemmings. Reason? You never see hamsters employed on mass Russian style tactics. Voles, however, appear in enourmous waves, sweeping over everything, burrowing through every garden in sight. Their shock tactics are awful to behold, and soldiers on the Russian front often ran out of BB gun ammo before they could repulse the tides of voles.

For once, Rob/1 is correct.

CM2 will most likely be named "Barbarossa & Beyond." However, that name doesn't fully encompass the Finnish-Russian "Winter War" of which BTS did plan to include. But actually, a name with "Steppes" in it would probably catch it all.

CM4 will most likely be named "Blitzkrieg!"

Now for a little fun......

CM3 shall be named "Desert Hamsters"

CM2 will be named "Ice Gerbels Strike Back."

I have it on good authority that CM3 will finally include Brazilian units. Thus, it will be called CM3: Enter the Nutria
